Todd and Kelly were two typical college freshmen. Both were from small towns, a bit shy, and virgins. They had gone on dates in high school, but never had a real boyfriend or girlfriend. Todd had only gone to second base with one girl.
They met during “Move-In Day” on their dorm floor, they lived right across the hall from each other. Todd was instantly smitten with her. Kelly, while she thought he was handsome, always questioned the boy's intentions.
Kelly was raised in a very religious Italian family, who were hardcore Catholics. She had been told for years that sex was meant only for a husband and wife, and to make babies. Many babies. Kelly was one of five children.
During the next few weeks, they talked occasionally in the hallway and common area, or at the cafeteria during meals. Todd was developing a sweet crush on Kelly and would flirt with her a little each time they spoke. He always seemed to be seated near Kelly when a group would gather or go to the café for meals.
This was noticed by his roommate, Bob, who would harass him. “Just ask the girl out on a date. Go to a movie.”
Todd finally asked her out for pizza and a movie one weekend in October and they had a wonderful time. When they returned to the dorm, they hugged goodnight and Todd gave Kelly a soft kiss on the lips, surprising her. Kelly quickly opened her door and said goodbye.
“As soon as I kissed her, she bolted into her room,” he told Bob.

They would go out on simple dates every weekend. A casual dinner, maybe a movie or activity like bowling or mini-golf, and then return to campus and their dorm. Each week they seemed to go a little bit further with their kissing, and on the last date, Kelly didn’t push Todd’s hand away when he caressed one of her breasts. He was encouraged that she slightly moaned when he did this as they continued to grind and dry hump on her dorm bed.
“How many dates have you been on with her?” Bob asked his roomie.
“Six. And all I’ve got is a handful of tittie,” Todd said. “Oh, and blue balls.”
The reality was Todd and Kelly were spending a lot of time together studying, eating dorm meals together, and having snuggle sessions here and there with some classic make-out sessions. He was being a gentleman and not pushing her to get naked.
“Tell her how much you like her. Tell her you want to pleasure her. And make sure to tell her you’d never fuck with her until she is ready, and that you will use a condom,” Bob advised.
“That’s a given. I don’t want to get a chick pregnant. My folks would kill me,” he said.

With Thanksgiving approaching Todd knew they’d be apart for the one-week break, so he wanted to make a move. He asked when she planned on driving the two hours to her hometown. After her reply on Friday afternoon, he told her his idea.
“Why don’t you wait until Saturday morning? We won’t see each other for a full week, and I’d like to take you out for dinner on Friday. Something nicer than pizza or a burger. Something fancy like Chili’s or Applebee’s,” he joked.
Kelly giggled, “Oh, yes, real fancy.” She paused, “Let me check with my parents, they might have something planned for my first night back.”
The next day she told Todd that she was free to stay Friday night and would like to do something with him. “And Julie will be gone, we can hang out in my room after dinner.”

After their dinner downtown at an Italian restaurant, they returned to campus. It was a cold November evening in Oak Valley, so they were happy to get a great parking spot close to the dorms since most kids had left for home. Once at their rooms, Todd said he’d toss his jacket in his room and grab dessert.
